Men Who Can’t Propose.
‘•I think it is a real shame that we
gills can’t do the droposing at times,”
pouted an Evansten young lady to her
companion on a suburban train a few
mornings ago. “I’m sure we woldn’t
make such terrible work of it as some
young men do. When a y ming man is
dying to propose, and a young lady is
dying to have him do so. it seems as
though it ought to be a simple matter
to reach an undeistanding.’'
“What has set you to talking in that
strain?” asked her companion.
“Have you been having trouble with
bashful young men?”
“No, they’re not bashful, goodness
knows, hut they are foolish.” ADi’
then stie lowered her voiui to a little
above a whisper and continued: “You
know Mr. Waitawliile has been calling

certain oilier young gentleman, whose
name 1 did not mention, wished to
call on me. and I wanted In in to in¬
timate if such an arrangement would
be agreeable to him. He didn’t have
spunk enough to say anything to me,
but in tlie privacy of hi s own room ho
wrote me, saying he feared his society
was no longer agr -vable Lo me, and
that lie wovld await an invitation

lie’s a good young man, sensible in

course when lie comes back matters

and very much interested listener to

A close observer tells us that when a
wora “ n *» horseback passes, the ] rem
man looks first at the wauinn, the Kn
glihman first at the horse; the vmcri
looks at both together. Our country man
is quick to appreciate the. eomplimcntary
relations of both. It is this broad per
spective that lead the American to o pre
pare his medicine, a complimentary mix
ture, one ingredient enhancing the
medicinal qualities of the other. it is in
this way that nature has an ally in furth
ing the curative power of iier remedies for
man’s ailments. Dr. Westmoreland’ s
Calisaya Tonic is the embodiment of the
latest and best known of these, com¬
pounded according to a formula most ex¬
tensively endorsed. It has stood the tests
of many years’ trial- General debility,
loss of appetite, enervated faculties and
dyspepsia are entirely cured by its use
Malarial symptons, or poison and blood !
poison are quickly banished by its use.
